I haven't even been on Flickr much. Maybe we should get some challenges going for the fall and winter months. Octoberfest is happening right now on Nikon Cafe. It's pretty fun to participate in.

Lol same here. Those are the only pics I've been taking lately. Maybe we should do some sort of prime challenge since that seems to be everyone's interest lately.

I'm not participating in anything right now. I was going to do the Octoberfest but forgot about it. It's a prime challenge actually.

I'd be in to a prime challenge. All I have right now is my 35mm prime.

That's cool with me. What about rules? Do you guys just want to assume those of Octoberfest? One prime only, one photo a day (or at least 1 a week), until the end of the month?

I bought the 50 1.4G because I thought the 35 1.8G wasn't tight enough :D

Usually the only rule is just use one lens... The entire month, no matter what. Of course, it is assuming the honor system is used.
